清代咸丰元寳宝陝当百。 (t) CHINA. Qing Dynasty. Shaanxi. 100 Cash, ND (1851-61). Xian Mint. Emperor Wen Zong (Xian Feng). Graded "Genuine" by Zhong Qian Ping Ji Grading Company. 重67.9克。正面为“咸丰元宝”。背“当百”。保存佳，棕色包浆迷人，缝隙处少许积土。 字体饱满，币面大致仍保留天然粗糙质感。 仔细检查可见”咸”下曾试图移除碎屑，因此获”真品“评分。 品相仍俊俏。 Hartill-22.950. Weight: 67.9 gms. Obverse: "Xian Feng Yuan Bao;" Reverse: "Dang Bai". This decently preserved example displays rich attractive brown patina with minor earthen deposits in the crevasses. The characters are well formed and the surfaces retain much of their naturally rough texture. Close inspection reveals evidence of attempted debris removal on the obverse below "Xian", which probably accounts for the "Genuine" designation. None the less a handsome example of the type with a pleasing appearance.
